first I want to say that I've only ever posted pics one other time and I think I posted 5 photos or less. well this post is going to have quite a few pictures because i took pictures of everything i prepared for the housewarming. so, get ready for your mouth to water.
here are the cute plates i found at party city. i wanted something square. i thought these were cute and the bright colors fit me.
for dessert i made banana pudding pie, yellow cake with chocolate icing, brownies, and fruit. well, i didn't make the fruit, but i cut it up (i even cut myself doing the watermelon). btw--does anyone know how to get the pictures in order that i posted them. i wanted the pictures to match my words, and i even selected them in the proper order, but they are all backwards.
for the rest of the food we had bagel bites, 5 layer dip (couldn't remember the other two layers while i was at the store, meats and cheeses tray, and a veggie tray (the yellow pepper later held the ranch dip).
here is alex helping with the bagel bites!

i put the food in the dining room and the desserts in the kitchen (you get a little peak at my house).
everyone seemed to have a good time. it was a small crowd and we're all pretty laid back. i didn't take any pictures during the actual party because i was giving tours and socializing. i love having parties (even though it is so much work to get ready for them).
finally, here are the beautiful purple roses form rhonda (btw, purple roses are my FAVORITE!!!)

i guess i need to do a post that shows my actual house...
